Emotional Intelligence (EI) 360º assessment

The EI 360° assessment from Assessments 24x7 measures your understanding of how your emotional and social behavior affects others. Often, there's a gap between how we think others perceive us and how our actions are perceived. This is where the strength of the EI 360° assessment helps.

Even a self-aware manager may have blind spots in emotional awareness. With anonymous and honest feedback from our EI 360° assessment, you can review your results and get a clearer picture.

The data is collected anonymously from the raters and then compiled and interpreted to find competencies and areas for improvement in the client's emotional intelligence.

Assessment Instrument
The assessment model uses a scientifically validated, standardized questionnaire that measures aspects of a person's emotional intelligence like self-awareness, empathy, and social skills, through both self-assessment and feedback from the chosen raters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the benefit of a 360° assessment versus a self-assessment?

A self-assessment is from a single perspective - yours. The EI 360° assessment is designed to reveal the bigger picture of how those around you perceive your Emotional Intelligence. By opening yourself up to receiving feedback, you can examine the differences between your intentions and others’ perceptions. The EI 360° Assessment improves your ability to adapt, as an understanding of both self and others is achieved.

The EI 360° assessment gives general information about others’ perceptions of me, but, how can I learn more about how others perceive me and why?

Ask! The EI 360° assessment is intended to offer you an overall view of how those around you perceive your Emotional Intelligence and actions and reveal areas where they may be misunderstood. The information in the report can be used as a starting point for discussion to ask clarifying questions. The key to this conversation is that it must be safe for feedback to be shared. Come to the conversation with authentic curiosity and a desire to understand what others are experiencing.

Is the feedback provided in the the EI 360° assessment anonymous? How many observer responses are needed?

The feedback presented in the report is anonymous. A minimum of three observer responses are needed to maintain anonymity, and the 360° report will not generate until three responses are received. An unlimited number of observers can be invited to participate, and the cost is the same whether you have three observer responses or 300. We recommend inviting as many observers as possible for the best overall snapshot.

How is the EI 360° assessment different from the EI assessment?

The EI 360° assessment collects feedback from peers, direct reports, and supervisors to give a broad view of an individual's emotional intelligence. This multi-rater approach shows how one's emotional and social skills are seen at work. The EI assessment, on the other hand, is a self-report that evaluates how individuals see their own emotional intelligence. The EI assessment analyzes emotional skills from a self-reflective viewpoint but lacks the external feedback that the EI 360° assessment provides. Using both assessments together can give a balanced understanding, aligning self-perception with external feedback for better personal and professional growth.
